I have a question about the body lines on these old trucks. I have an 89 d100 and the doors are pretty gone. I found the lower 18 inches or so of the door skin for the earlier models on line. So the question is, are there any differences between the two that the door skin would not work on my truck? The parts are $12.50 each so they are not expensive but i dont want to waste the 25+shipping if they wont work. Any one have any info i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
 
as far as the skins, the only difference is on the '81-'93 doors there is an additional body line. It starts on the fender Also the door handle area is recessed starting in '75 IIRC.

Sweet. The lower skins i found are only about 18 inches high or so, so that body line wont bother anything. I was hoping for that answer. Thank you.
